HOW IS YOUR ABSTRACT EVALUATED?
ABSTRACT REVIEW PROCESS AND NOTIFICATION OF ACCEPTANCE
The Programme Committee will review all abstracts that have been submitted on time and in the correct format. Paper Reviewers can recommend abstracts for oral or visual presentation or otherwise reject abstracts which do not possess the quality required for presentation or are not relevant to the topics of the conference.
Abstracts are reviewed on a scale of 1 to 10: 1 being very poor and 10 being excellent.
The three selection criteria are:
Content – relevance to other groups active in biomass
Innovation – advancement in terms of progress and novelty
Quality – scientific quality as well as the probability of a good presentation at the conference
The oral presentations are reserved for contributions covering a wider scope which are of interest to a broader audience and address the progress and novelties within the topic. Visual presentations (posters) are mostly dedicated to issues of interest for specialists in a particular field.
The reviewed abstracts, together with the recommendations of reviewers and any additional comments are made available to the Topic Organisers. The TO’s will prepare session proposals, identifying the abstracts they wish to include in their session.
Corresponding authors will be notified of the outcome of their submission by email through the address conference@ibsce.com
Save this address in your email address book to make sure you receive our messages. And as an added measure, please make sure to check your spam folder for email notifications regarding abstract review results!
